Welcome to Shamrock 354 

 

 

 

Shamrock Masonic Lodge 354 Kircubbin is one of 160 Masonic Lodges in the Provincial Grand Lodge of Down.  Our Lodge is run by its members and headed by a Worshipful Master with the support of various officers who carryout specific duties and administrative tasks.  We currently have 40 members and meet on the 3rd Friday of each month (excluding June, July & August).

 

We support various charities, both Masonic and non Masonic and organise various social functions throughout the year to support them.  This is in addition to our regular meetings where normal Lodge business is conducted.

 

Freemasonry is a fraternity, based on the Three Great Principles;

 

Brotherly Love

Every true Freemason will show tolerance and respect for the opinions of  others and behave with kindness and understanding to his fellow creatures.

 

Relief

Freemasons are taught to practice charity, and to care, not only for their own  members, but for the community as a whole, by both charitable giving, and by voluntary efforts.

 

Truth 

Freemasonry strives for truth and requires a high moral standard of it members.

 

 

 

 

The Kircubbin Masonic Centre is a shared building, managed by  Hall Management Committee made up from members of each Craft Lodge and Royal Arch Chapter.  There are a total of 2 Craft Lodges and 1 Royal Arch Chapter who currently sit here.  

 

Craft Lodges are;

Welcome to Shamrock Masonic Lodge.  This is  the 119th year of Shamrock Masonic Lodge in Kircubbin.  With the creation of our website back in 2014, it's a new era for our Lodge.  We are very fortunate to have new members joining year after year which allows Shamrock Masonic Lodge to continue to grow from strength to strength. 

 

Our meetings were postponed back in March 2020 in line with our Grand Lodge and Government guidelines due to the global pandemic of COVID 19.  As a fraternity, we kept in regular touch with our members by phone, email, text, and the introduction of our monthly Newsletter, "The Kircubbin Mason's Newsletter".   Our Grand Lodge gave permission for all Branches of our Noble Order to resume meetings once again from 1st September 2021 while adhering to all relevant Government guidelines.  This has allowed us to get back together, albeit slightly different from the norm, but nevertheless back to seeing our friends once again - something that we have all dearly missed.

​

I hope you find the information on our website interesting and on behalf of the Officers and Brethren of the Lodge, I would like to thank you for taking the time to view it and read more about Freemasonry.

 

         

         Yours fraternally,
